Melvins and Mr. Bungle sharing the stage with names such as:
Papa Roach, Coal Chamber, Orgy, Evanescence and placebo......*Shudder*
Here's hoping they have another Riot on their hands.
Melvins will tour with Tomahawk in 2026.

Patton's going to be on tour with Mr. Bungle in Jan into the beginning of Feb and then with AVTT/PTTN from late March to late June. Just sayin.

The cancelled Jesus Lizard shows might also get rescheduled. We haven't heard anything from the band since the announcement though, hope they are doing well.

Heard anything else about a new Sleep tour?
MELVINS WEST COAST TOUR DATES
The guys have just announced a couple warm-up shows for April on their way out to the Sick New World Festival.
They're still supporting their 2025 release, Thunderball, but will have some other big announcements in the coming weeks!
Apr 22 Fresno, CA Strummer's
Apr 23 Bakersfield, CA Temblor Brewing Company
Apr 25 Las Vegas, NV Sick New World Festival
That's not a west coast tour!
last time i was in bakersfield i said never again. but i guess i'll have to make an exception.
:lol:
I wonder if the Tomahawk/Melvins tour will encourage more Fantomas!! Or some kind of future collaboration anyway.
That was kind of expected, but was hoping for at least one show in europe or UK, damn
I don't know, does anyone get the sense that Patton and Buzz are basically divorced-amicable? I don't expect any Fantomas reunion ever.

Where's this coming from? There was a period years ago pre-covid where they supposedly had a falling out and didn't speak for years. It might've been around the time Faith No More reunited in 2009, I remember just a few weeks before the announcement Fantomas were doing the Big Day Out tour and at the last show in Perth Buzz took the mic and said Patton's got a big announcement to make, to which Patton shook his head, and then Buzz said Patton's going to commit suicide and laughed. The FNM reunion was announced a couple of weeks later. Fantomas next played a couple of shows in Chile in 2014 and one last show supporting Tool in California in 2017.
But since Mr. Bungle reunited in 2019 Buzz has been doing their press photos plus Melvins supported Bungle on the Ipecac Geek Show tour in 2023, the Australian tour in 2024 and now Melvins are going to support Tomahawk this year, that doesn't suggest any issues.
Not to mention Melvins continue to release their albums through Ipecac and are even starting to reissue some of their AmRep releases through Ipecac too and Buzz did come on stage and did a Fantomas cover with Bungle on that 2023 tour.
That's actually part of it. Throughout all that co-touring, I don't recall seeing any evidence that Buzz was invited up. Seems every other dude in every band they've played with has had some on-stage time with Bungle.
Maybe that's just Buzz being Buzz, after their set he's going to bed.
In interviews post pandemic, he also continues to mention that in Fantomas he had no input, and that Mike is weirder than people know.
Considering how close Buzz and Trevor became, and how intertwined the Melvins are with Ipecac, it makes sense that they maintain a working relationship.
That's why I say it as amicable-divorced. They can show up for the kids and sit in different aisles. They can be in the same room, they just have no chemistry together romantically.
I suspect Patton has just had to put himself in a zone where he only works with musicians in a live setting where the band mates and the audience are receptive. I can see how Buzz would not be healthy to work with if you're a person with a mental health challenge. He seems like a full-on tough-love boomer, and I'm sure even his silence is loud when you're in a sensitive mindset.

i'm protesting this tour, mostly just because it skips Arizona. take that! fuckers! :buzz:
Hey PepsiMike,Sorry for late reply. If I'm remembering correctly there was some additional recording on Sleep lp done late in 2025 and will be released on Third Man. Not sure when. There will probably be some shows played to support release. Not sure the extent of that, if it is mini-tour or festival dates. It's not my place to release Melvins-related info, but I don't think this is a big deal to divulge. And, I guess this is still correct info and hasn't been made public yet.
Also, to the point of Buzz and Mike at odds, I seriously doubt it. Buzz likes to play their set, immediately load out and hit the road to next town. He usually does not stick around for headliners; so, he wouldn't be around to join headliners on stage.
Thanks username!

I think this band Acid Bath is good , still don't get all the hype they got especially in the US since their reunion

Acid Bath are NOLA legends!!! They only had two albums in the 90s but both are total bangers.
I went to one of the reunion shows last year - lots of energy and a slappin' set! The show was 18+ so initially I was surprised to see how many young people were there. I think they had a 'hot topic / tik tok' appeal that resurfaced the band that I believe started with their infamous album art - paintings by John Wayne Gacy and Dr Jack Kavorkian. I kinda got some weird juggalo vibes but it was fine. No one was doused in faygo.
When I saw Melvins Napalm Death in New Orleans (probably 2017ish) it was like a NOLA legends reunion in the audience. So many of those bands low-key worship the ground Buzz and Dale walk on.
It's good dirty sludgey kinda sexy spectacular.

There is another project in the works that will probably see the light of day this fall or winter.
Jesus Christ is the bot back?
Not a bot. Curious what the new project is.

i thought that and checked their 3 previous posts. they know their shit. :lol:
Ok fair. Welcome, Username. I'm a curmudgeon. Don't mind me.
Last week I listened to some podcast where Buzz talked about being in a new band with three other guys. He didn't give details but said they were well known and that they were going to release an album and tour. Melvins fans won't be turned off and it's a bit more melodic, by the sounds of it.
Podcast is called A Fresh Face In Hell with Jonathan Evison. They start talking about it 52ish minutes in.
Good find. I wonder who the 'Freddie Mercury-like singer that also plays the guitar'?

really makes you think.... :-k
Lemon Twigs is exactly what my mind went to.
The only guess I can come up with is that Matt Cameron will be part of it
Oh yeah, that's right. He left PJ.
